A2 . % SOCIAL WELFARE TEAMPLAY ASKED Co-nperation Between Branches of Profession Is Needed. . More “team play” among the vari- ous branches of social welfare work was urged at the concluding session yesterday of the joint conference of the Washington Council of Soetal Agencies and the Maryland State Con- ference of Social Welfare. Paul Kellogg, editor of the Survey magazine, and one of the country’s foremost leaders in social work, told the conference delegates that, while &pecialization still plays an important part in welfare work, co-operation be- tween the different activities of the profession is becoming increasingly important. Kellogg said the fact that Washing- ton has 3,000 employable men and women unable to obtain either work o relief should illustrate the necessity for dealing with the problem in terms of community needs as a whole. He added he would like to see the Nation’s Capital a model city in social welfare wark, as well as in civic government. Theories Are Described. Describing the philosophies of sev- eral pioneers in the profession, the speaker said he does not believe a merger of these different theories is highly important, but that each one should be allowed to develop along parallel lines. All these philosophies of welfare work—those dealing with the individual, with changing environ- ment or with the administration of sogial work—have definite contri- butions to make. *All share in the idea of the seam- less unity of social work,” he said. “We must work toward a program by which the resources of this great Nation can be used to furnish a common footing of security against the hazards of modern industrialism.” Kellogg also emphasized the impor- tance of the interlocking activities be- tween the fleld of social welfare and other professions, such as law and medicine, pointing out that changes and improvements in a particular field are brought about by these interlock- ing efforts, and not alone by the work of those in that one profession. ¥ Officers Are Elected. S<Blection of officers of the Maryland Btate Conference preceded the final general meeting yestrday morning. Mrs. Adolf Guttmacher, executive sec- retary of the Jewish Children Society, was named president. Other officers chosen were: L, Milton Patterson, ex- eritive secretary of the Board of Wel- fare of the State Aid Societies, first vice president; Miss Estella Everett, probation officer of Harford County, second vice president, and Howard C. HIll, executive secretary of the Prison- ers' Aid Society, treasurer. + A program looking to the future ad- yancement of child welfare was out- lined to the conference by Mrs. Marion Wade Doyle, president of the District Board of Education. She stressed $he following five general points as essential for child welfare: Juvenile placement, service to aug- jment the work done by school de- artments and case workers; greater hasis on the health of the child H"the lower grades so that defects may be corrected before they are re- leased into industry; establishment of 8 means of checking on children who are released on work permits, with rticular attention to those who go Fm domestic work; awakening of s vic consciousness that will prevent ¥mnployment of young girls for do- mestic service at a low rate of pay, Bnd more complete use of materials available in the Statistical Bureau of dhe Labor Department to guide case ‘Workers. = Conference Is Summarized. = Mrs. Doyle summarized a round-table ponference held Friday on “Schools d Family Case Work.” Others giv~ 2 summaries of round-table sessions gnd the subjects dealt with were: « Miss L.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 17.—A denun- ciation of liquor drinking and an at- tack on the national administration were contained in a report adopted by the New York Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church today. The national administration was charged with failing to carry on a campaign of education tending toward temperance, as the churchmen said was pledged before repeal of the pro- hibition laws. It also was criticized in the report for appropriating $1,000,- 000 for establishment of a distillery in the Virgin Islands. Half of last year's 38,500 auto- mobile fatalities were laid to intoxi- cated or drinking persons by the report. Urging the necessity of total ab- stinence, the report recommended that any man renting or using his property for the sale of intoxicating liquors be disowned as s member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. FARLEY AGAIN PREDICTS COURT PLAN VICTCRY Just as Sure of It as He Was of Maine and Vermont, He Says in Perth Amboy. By the Associated Press. PERTH AMBOY, N. J, April 17.— Postmaster General James A. Farley dedicated the city's new Federal Building today and predicted victory for President Roosevelt's court re- organization plan. He deviated from his prepared ad- dress to say, “I am just as certain as I was about Maine and Vermont that the reorganization plan will he car- ried out.” “When the Senate and House finish their hearings and decide to vote en the plan, it will be adopted and be- come a 1aw,” he said. “I believe that the same people who supported Preale dent Roosevelt last November want the court program carried out.” THE SUNDAY HAVANA MYSTIFIED BY DEATH ON SHIP Resort Proprietor, Found Hanged, Reported Marked by Torture. By the Associated Press. HAVANA, April 17.—The death of Jose Cancela, one of the partners in a well-known Havana resort, aboard the Hamburg-American liner Orinoco, to- night confronted police with a mystery. Canc body was found hanging in his stateroom yesterday morning when the Orinoco arrived from Lisbon. A piece of his pajamas was used as & noose. Officers of the ship told the authori- ties he had ahown signs of extreme nervousness and precsutions had been taken to keep him from jumping over- board. Autopsy Report Pusling. An autopsy was performed after Cancela's partners told police they believed he had been killed, and a report, signed by Dr. Esteban Valdes Castillo, chief medical examiner, and two assistant examiners, presented to the court of instruction. It said in part: “Lesions on * * ¢ parts of the body indicate the dead man was assaulted while alive for the purpose of torturing him or reducing his resistance. “Lesions on his body are character~ istic of those suffered in defense and show that a fight preceded his hanging * * *. “* * * Death by hanging seems to have been carried out with homicidal intent.” Sailing Blocks Ship Probe. Police ofMcials unsuccessfully sought to detain the Orinoco to permit fur- ther examination of officers and crew members. It sailed at 8:45 p.m. for Mexican ports. Cancela was a nephew of Jose Garcia, original owner of the resort which Garcia turned over to Cancela and two other employes more than 10 years ago. Oancels returned to Spain last May on a pleasure trip and was caught there by the outbreak of the civil war. Relatives and friends said he had fled from conscription to Portugal, where he embarked at Lisbon for his return to Havana. NICHOLAS DENIES PLOT ON LEADERS Ousted Brother of Carol Disclaims Effort to Create Dis- turbance. By the Associated Press. BUCHAREST, April 18 (Sunday).— Former Prince Nicholas early today Tepudiated efforts to create a political disturbance because of his ouster from the royal family. The demoted Prince, in a letter to Premier George Tatarescu, said he was not asociated with the militant Iron Guard, secret Rumanian Fascist society, and he expressed concern that reports he was co-operating with some opposition group might finjure the state, His statement, issued early today by the Government Press Bureau, was expected by officials to take the fire out of the opposition movement, which for several days has worried the cab- inet. 5 The letter said: “Reports have reached me that it is rumored throughout the country 1 am associated with a political move- ment which, were I indeed involved, might damage the state. “I am not associated with any such movement, and I protest agaifst such reports. I beg of you, Mr. President, to take measures to stamp out such rumors.” Officials said an effort to give the impression Nicholas was associated with encouraging the revolutionary guard was started by a student or- ganization. Premier Tatarescu's firm precau- tions against a possible Naxi coup al- ready last night seemingly had cowed the Iron Guard. —_— CHILDREN’S SIT-DOWN IN MOVIE HOUSE WINS 1,000, Irked Because Feature Is Denied Them, Boo Until They Get It.

O.-sponsored American ‘ Telegraphists’ Association prepared tonight to move into & broader fleld of international com- munications, both cable and air. Mervyn Rathborne, president of the newly organized union which yesterday won an agreement from the Inter- national Mercantile Marine, announced his organization would approach the R. C. A.-Communications, Inc., next week for collective bargaining con- ferences. Rathborne said approximately 1,000 operators of some 1,300 employed by the corporation operating radio cir- cuits in United States, Europe, South America and Asia were members of the C. I O. group. * Petition for Poll Filed. To back the bid for recognition, Rathborne said the telegraphists’ union had filed with the National Labor Relations Board a petition ask- ing it to conduct an election among the operators of R. C.

Organizing of the telegraph and cable companies is progressing rapidly, Rathborne said, despite the threat of conflict with the old American Peder- ation of Labor organization on Juris- diction. _ Closed Shop Protested. The Commercial Telegraphers' Union, A. F. L. affiliate, yesterday protested ahy agreement between Rathborne's union and the I. M. M. which would effect a closed shop.

Accounting Gone Far Enough to Show That Much Is Due on Judgment, He Says. By the Associated Press. ST.

His petition asserted an account- ing, being made in accordance with the judgment, has progressed far enough to indicate the inventor would be entitled to recover from $5,500,000 to $10,000,000 from atockholders of the company, which was sold for $35,000.000 in 1929 to the General Steel Castings Corp.
